Shi Wei coughed a few times, and the servants quickly shut up.

"You're not doing anything here, let's go down." Shi Wei shouted with his hands...

The servants hurriedly retreated.

Only the three of them were left in the vast hall.

Shi Wei put Mu Guiying down, turned around and asked Mu Yu, "Brother Mu, you came here from Zhending Mansion all the way, afraid you are not just to visit me."

"Nothing can be hidden from Lord Shi's eyes. Yes, Old Mu, I am here this time. Actually, there is something else I want to ask Lord Shi for help." Mu Yu scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Shi Wei poured him a cup of tea with his own hands.

Mu Yu took a few sips, his expression suddenly became mysterious, and he asked in a low voice: "Master Shi, is the court planning to use troops against the pseudo-Han?"

Shi Wei's brow moved slightly, but he asked quietly: "How did you know?"

"I saw that in recent months, a large number of food and siege equipment have been continuously transported from the south. Shangfeng also issued an order to step up the training. I was thinking about these signs. Most of the time the imperial court planned to destroy the pseudo-han, I wonder if it was not?"

Mu Yu is a bandit, but his mind is delicate and tight (--The fastest update of the house

ef="

), it is really rare to understand the intention of the court from a few signs.

The emperor planned to use troops to the Northern Han Dynasty, which was already very popular in Bianjing City. Now he was on a mission to the Liao Kingdom to warn him. Soon after, the news of the attack on the Northern Han Dynasty will be spread more.

Mu Yu is his own person, and Shi Wei feels that there is no need to hide it from him anymore.

He nodded and said, "Brother Mu, you have a good judgment. The emperor really plans to wipe out the fake Han Dynasty. I will tell you that this time I am on the Liao Kingdom to warn Liao Kingdom not to support the fake Han Dynasty."

After being recognized by Shi Wei, Mu Yu immediately became extremely excited.

There was a flash of excitement in his eyes, and his expression looked like he was eager to try.

It can be seen that Mu Yu seemed to have long been looking forward to the Song Dynasty's attack on the Northern Han Dynasty.

Shi Wei remembered the previous doubts and asked, "Brother Mu, when I was in Muke Village earlier, I felt that there seemed to be a deep hatred between you and the Liu family of the pseudo-Han. At that time, I didn't have time to ask in detail, and now I don't know if I can tell me."

When talking about this, Mu Yu gritted his teeth in hatred, so he told Shi Wei truthfully, following the causes and consequences.

It turned out that Mu Yu was an ordinary farmer in the Northern Han Dynasty. In the past ten years, in order to make the Liao Kingdom, the Northern Han Dynasty paid tribute every year.

The Northern Han area was narrow and the people were few. In order to accumulate tribute, the Northern Han government had only exploited the people in its territory in a large manner, and Mu Yu also suffered a lot.

Seven years ago, there was a severe drought in Hedong. The Mu Yu family's land was not harvested, and the government not only did not provide relief to them. The tax revenue was heavier than last year.

Mu Yu was unable to pay taxes, so the Northern Han government forced his wife to take her away and offered her to the Liao Kingdom as a slave.

In helplessness and resentment, Mu Yu took his daughter Guiying, who was only a few years old, to the Taihang Mountains and became a bandit.

It is precisely because of the hatred of taking over his wife that Mu Yu hated the Northern Han Dynasty to the core. Whenever he met officials or soldiers from the Northern Han Dynasty, he would kill him without hesitation.

Hearing Mu Yu's resentful memories, Shi Wei sighed in his heart, thinking that it would be strange if the Northern Han treats his people like this.

Mu Yu then said, "So I came here this time to ask Lord Shi for help, so that my superiors can list our troops as the army to attack the pseudo-Han so that I can avenge my blood."

It turned out that Mu Yu came for revenge.

Mu Yu was originally a native of the Northern Han Dynasty and was familiar with the terrain and land of the country. In addition, he was his own person. If he could make contributions in the war to conquer Northern Hankou, it would be a good thing for him to do.

After weighing the pros and cons, Shi Wei said happily: "Brother Mu, don't worry, this will help me. I will do my best to help you fulfill your wish of revenge and blood hatred."

Mu Yu was overjoyed and immediately knelt on one knee and bowed to thank him.

Shi Wei quickly helped him up and said with a smile: "You and I are not outsiders, why should I be so polite, Brother Mu?"

Mu Yu was both excited and grateful. He was a rough man and didn't know how to express his feelings, so he laughed so much.

After laughing, Mu Yu slapped his forehead, remembered something again, and hurriedly said, "Sir Shi, I have something else to ask you to help."

"Just say it."

Mu Yu then pulled his daughter Gui Ying over and said, "There is no sight on the battlefield. This time I attacked the pseudo-han, I am very likely to go but not return. If I have a few shortcomings, Gui Ying will have to entrust him to take care of Lord Shi."

Shi Wei was shocked and hurriedly comforted: "Why do you have to say these unfavorable words? I believe you will be safe and sound in this battle."

But Mu Yu shook his head and smiled: "My old Mu licked blood on his head for so many years. He knows best what life and death are based on fate. In case of precautions, this time Lord Shi returns to Beijing, so he will take Guiying away together."

Mu Yu said this to this point, Shi Wei could no longer refuse whether it was reasonable or not.

He said solemnly: "Brother Mu, don't worry, I will take good care of Guiying. After the Northern Han Dynasty is pacified, I will hand her back to you."

Mu Yu nodded and said nothing more. Since the men had already made up their minds, there was no need for so many mother-in-law's words.

At this time, Mu Guiying, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said: "Dad, Guiying wants to go to the battlefield with you to kill the enemy and avenge her mother."

She was young, but her words were full of murderous intent.

Mu Yu bent down, stroked his daughter's head with his hand, and smiled: "Dad knows that you are a filial and good child, but you are still young, so just obediently and go to the capital with Brother Shi."

Shi Wei also said: "There are many fun things in the capital, Guiying, you will definitely like it."

After the two of them comforted each other, Mu Guiying was willing to be obedient.

After fulfilling these two wishes, Mu Yu said he would hurry back to Zhending Mansion and not stay overnight, so he set off immediately.

Shi Wei held Guiying's hand and sent him to the outside of the official post.

The little Guiying watched her father disappear into the night, and her eyes were filled with tears, but she gritted her teeth to prevent the crystal objects from rolling down.

Shi Wei felt that the little hand in his palm held him tighter and tighter.

After seeing Mu Yu away, Shi Wei took Mu Guiying south as soon as the next day dawn.

From Xiongzhou to the south, we passed through Hejian Prefecture, Shenzhou, Jizhou, Daming Prefecture, Kaide Prefecture and other prefectures. From time to time, we could see teams transporting food, grass and weapons heading north.

When crossing the Yellow River to the south and reaching Kaifeng Prefecture, Shi Wei could even see a large number of fully armed imperial guards gathering towards the south bank ferry, preparing to cross the Yellow River north.

All signs indicate that the state machinery of the Song Dynasty has accelerated its operation. The war against the Northern Han Dynasty is imminent.

Shi Wei did not dare to delay and rushed forward. Finally, he rushed back to Bianjing at the end of the summer.

As soon as he entered the capital, Shi Wei didn't even have time to return to his family, so he immediately entered the palace to report to the emperor.

When Zhao Kuangyin heard that Shi Wei had returned, he went to the palace to greet him in person and joined him in hand.

Shi Wei briefly reported his trip to Liao Kingdom and presented the letter of the Liao Emperor Yelu Xian.

Zhao Kuangyin didn't even look at the Liao Dynasty's clerk and threw it aside.

"The pseudo-Han is the barrier of Yanyun, and the Liao Kingdom will definitely provide assistance. It would be better if I don't read this letter. Shi Aiqing. I want to hear it. You have entered the Liao territory this time. Do you know the reality of the Liao people?"

Shi Wei bowed and said, "I dare not hide your majesty. When I went to Liao for this mission, I only feel that the Liao Kingdom is strong and the country is growing stronger. Although the Liao Lord Yelu Xian is a sick son, his queen Xiao Chuo is extremely talented. Such enemies must not be despised."

Zhao Kuangyin smiled and said, "In the past, the envoys who sent envoys to Liao Kingdom dared not be as strong as the Liao people. Only Shi Aiqing dared to tell the truth is really valuable."

Shi Wei’s truth is exactly what Zhao Kuangyin’s pragmatic appetite is.

Shi Wei was humble and then said, "But even though the Liao people are strong, they are not invincible. I believe that with Your Majesty's magical martial arts and heroic attacks, this time, the heroic attack on the Northern Han will surely be able to win the heroes."

Shi Wei took the opportunity to flatter Zhao Kuangyin, which made Zhao Kuangyin very proud.

After stroking his beard and laughing, Zhao Kuangyin said again: "What are Shi Aiqing's opinions on this battle to attack the pseudo-Han?"

Shi Wei hurriedly said: "I do not know the military tactics, how dare I discuss wars?"

"You are a doctor in your own business. Now this envoy is doing a good job. I just want to hear what you, an outsider, think of."

Zhao Kuangyin looked interested.

Shi Wei thought for a while and said, "Then I will speak nonsense. I think the reason why I failed to win the previous two attacks on the pseudo-Han was that I was unable to effectively block the reinforcements of the Liao Kingdom. Therefore, I believe that this time, I should use the superior forces to attack Taiyuan City, and then use the capable generals to lead elite troops to block the reinforcements of the Liao Kingdom on both sides of the northeast of Taiyuan. As long as foreign aid is cut off, Taiyuan City will be isolated and have no support, and I will be able to go there."

After hearing Shi Wei's unrestrained analysis, Zhao Kuangyin looked surprised.

Obviously, Shi Wei's strategy seemed to coincide with Zhao Kuangyin's plan.

From Zhao Kuangyin's expression, Shi Wei could see the clues, but on the surface he said modestly: "Your Majesty is laughing at me."

Zhao Kuangyin said strangely: "Shi Aiqing, why are you talking nonsense? The strategy you are talking about is exactly the same as what I think."

It's true.

"That must be a mistake, and I happened to mistakenly say that Your Majesty's Holy Will." Shi Wei became more and more humble.

Zhao Kuangyin stared at Shi Wei for a while, and his eyebrows were filled with surprise, and he nodded slightly, unable to hide his appreciation in his heart.

After several praises, Zhao Kuangyin gave him a lot of praise, and asked him to go home and take the time to rest, and lead the imperial physician regiment to the north sooner or later.

After leaving the palace, Shi Wei originally planned to take Mu Guiying back to his house, but thought that although Mu Guiying was young, she had a black and white engagement with him, but she was different from other women. If she took her back to his house, it would inevitably be inconvenient.

After thinking about it, Shi Wei first settled her in one of his own villas.

When Gui Ying settled down and returned to the mansion, it was already late at night.

Shi Wei didn't want to disturb his family's rest, so he told the servants who opened the door not to make a statement and wait for tomorrow.

Shi Wei went to the master's wife's room. After all, if others don't call her, the master's wife has to let her know that she is back first.

When I entered the yard, I saw that there was still dim light in the master's wife's room, and I thought I hadn't fallen asleep yet.

Shi Wei wanted to knock on the door, but suddenly he had a thought and quietly opened a small hole in the window paper, wanting to see what the teacher's wife is doing in the room.

When he leaned his eyes closer to the small hole, his heart couldn't help but feel excited.
